The FPC Immigration Task Force was established in 2017 to address challenges our members faced, at the time, with the U.S. immigration system.
The Task Force has organized letter-writing campaigns and rallies, developed a Sanctuary Church policy, and visited detained church members in detention centers. Additionally, Task Force members have raised funds to provide financial support for members experiencing detention and deportation issues. To educate the church community about immigration challenges, the Task Force has presented Second Hour Forums.
The task force also supports D.I.R.E (Deportation and Immigration Response Equipo) and Interfaith-RISE (Refugee and Immigrant Services and Empowerment), which offer services such as housing, case management, counseling, food, and referrals to those with detention and deportation concerns.
